As a fairly accomplished do-it-yourself person, I had thought about building a deck for several years. We had a small landing and stairs from our back sliding door that was long overdue for replacement. I did lots of research and had all the tools needed to do the job. There are so many horror stories about disreputable contractors and I did not want to be one of those people who wind up with a half finished job or shoddy workmanship. Fortunately, my spouse convinced me to se a friend's deck that had been recently completed by All Island Decks. I was very impressed and decided to give them a call. Best decision I made! Bob Lamontanaro was a pleasure to deal with. He listened to what I had in mind and made several good suggestions based on his years of experience. We came up with a plan for an 8x10 deck with a picture frame border, railing and stairs. A relatively simple deck but there were some additional details that I wanted and Bob was able to incorporate everything in the final design. He gave me a price and schedule that worked for me. After speaking with Bob, I did more research to check out his company. All great reviews wherever I looked. I compared his price to a couple of other estimates that I received. His price was higher than the others but still reasonable after considering the cost of the materials (composite decking is not cheap to buy!). I figured that over the lifespan of the deck the extra cost was not significant and his company came highly recommended. My top priority was to get a quality product, both materials and workmanship, and All island Decks did not disappoint. Although I had to wait a couple of months for the work to start, I figured it was a good sign that they had lots of customers. The work started right on schedule and the crew was amazing. I watched from a distance and their attention to detail was impressive. A very professional job from start to finish. It took the crew of three men about three days to finish and they did a perfect job of cleaning up. After seeing what they did I'm very happy (and so is my wife) that I did not tackle this job myself. It would have taken me many weeks to do and still would not have turned out as nice as it did. What really convinced me that Bob was the right guy to hire came a few days after the job was done and the final payment was made. I happened to be looking at a hidden section of the deck and noticed that the guys had apparently forgotten to put in a couple of skirt boards. It never would have been noticed by anyone else. I figured that since the job was already paid for it would be a quite while before they came back to fix it (if ever). I called Bob and couple of days later the crew showed up took care of it. Now that is the sign of a reputable company. So if you need a new deck I would highly recommend Bob Lamontanaro and All Island Decks. Expensive but worth every penny. read more

I first met Jay from Long Island Decking about five years ago when we were considering adding a deck to our home. At the time, it simply wasn't something we could move forward with. We had judt moved in and a baby on the way. Years later, during a major construction project, we finally had a deck added through our general contractor. But unfortunately as of Recently, I had some safety concerns regarding the deck and reached out to Jay for advice. Even though he had absolutely no obligation to help--and despite the fact that he wasn't the contractor who performed the work--he took the time to not only answer my questions, address my concerns, and share his expertise but spend about an hour onsite to help us out. What impressed me most was not just his knowledge, but his character. Jay remembered both me and my family after all these years. As the president of the company, he is clearly invested in his craft, his reputation, and the people he serves. He could have easily tried to sell me services I didn't need, but instead he gave honest guidance and put my family's safety first. In a world where it's easy to find contractors willing to take advantage of a situation (PatchitUp), Jay stands out for doing the exact opposite. His professionalism, integrity, and willingness to help--even when there was no sale involved--speak volumes about both him and Long Island Decking. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares about doing things the right way and treating people fairly, I would highly recommend Long Island Decking read more

We recently had the pleasure of working with Jay from Long Island Decking to build a Trex deck, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication to quality were evident throughout the entire process.

The Trex material was installed meticulously, and the finish is beautiful. It's clear that Jay takes great pride in their work, ensuring every plank and fastener was placed with precision. The result is a stunning, durable deck that has quickly become our favorite space for relaxation and entertaining. Communication was seamless throughout the project. Jay kept us informed at every stage, and any questions we had were answered promptly and thoroughly. The project was completed on time and within budget, with no hidden surprises. We couldn't be happier with our new Trex deck and highly recommend Jay from Long Island Decking to anyone looking for quality deck construction. Their expertise, reliability, and commitment to customer satisfaction make them a top choice for any decking project. Paul & Elena Lido Beach read more

A few months ago, my wife and I decided to take advantage of a free consultation that Jay, the owner of Long Island Decking was offering. Jay came to our house at the scheduled time and quickly proved to be friendly, patient and a professional with a clear expertise regarding his craft. Furthermore, over the course of the project, Jay was excellent with communication and was always quick to respond to our needs. Jay produced computer-generated renderings that looked exactly like our home, so it was easy to envision what our new deck and patio would look like. He was also able to make changes to these renderings based upon our preferences at a subsequent consultation. Additionally, Jay patiently showed us all options that would be available to us and made helpful suggestions as well. Jay's crew came on time each day until the project was completed and seemed to take extreme care in getting all aspects done right. In the end, the result was a stunning makeover to our back yard. Our expectations were not only met, but exceeded. Whenever someone needs something done, they always seek out the best. At the conclusion of having a very positive experience, I can say without hesitation, Jay and Long Island Decking is your answer when it comes to producing a beautiful deck, as well as possible accompanying masonry. read more

Jay Oliver and his team at Long Island Decking did a flawless job replacing an old broken deck and building a beautiful, larger space that was both within my budget and the building permit restrictions of my town. The attention to detail is beyond amazing as is the overall craftsmanship. Jay is a very no-pressure kind of guy and was happy to accommodate my color and design ideas. Once the project started, Jose and the crew kept me in the loop every step of the way. Workers arrived promptly every morning and finished the job in less than three days, as Jay predicted. Needless to say (but I'll say it anyway, for emphasis), every speck of debris was cleaned up and carted away after completion. Top-tier workmanship from beginning to end. I just love the way the deck turned out, with the subtle color contrast between the deck boards and trim. Jay was so nice to work with, as well as being generous, open and fair. It took us several months to get this project started due to my endless procrastinations but that didn't seem to bother Jay at all. It was a pleasure creating this deck with him and I'm only sorry that I don't have other projects to hire him for in the future. I would recommend LI Decking without hesitation for your next project! read more

We recently had a new deck and patio done by Long Island Decking. From start to finish it was such a nice experience. They replaced an old wood deck with a Trex deck, and also put in a new patio. Jay Oliver from LI Decking knows all there is to know about Trex. His expertise helped us choose the right products and his kindness and professionalism made us feel comfortable and confident. He was available throughout the whole process for any questions or issues. Every concern we had was addressed. The deck team was great, they were skilled, neat, showed concern for our property and worked consistently to complete the deck faster than we expected. The masons were also extremely hard working and attentive to our questions and concerns. Even after all work was done, Jay was available to address some concerns and went out of his way to make things perfect. The finished deck and patio are beautiful. We were so pleased with the amazing customer service, skilled craftmanship and attention to detail. We enthusiastically and confidently recommend LI Decking and Jay Oliver, our experience with this company was great!!!!! (we truly cannot say enough positive things about Jay and his team, the entire experience exceeded our expectations). read more

We're so thrilled that we hired Long Island Decking to build our deck. I found the website for Long Island Decking while searching for a decking contractor and called for an appointment.

After contacting him, he scheduled a consultation within just a few days and amazingly, his team was at our house within the week. The workmanship was absolutely outstanding! The crew was friendly, knowledgeable, hardworking and clearly took pride in what they were doing. They completed the entire project in one day and the finished deck looks beautiful-even better than we imagined.

Working with Jay and his team was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. We had multiple projects done -- a brand new Trex deck, two sets of entryway steps, and a custom garbage can enclosure -- every part of the process was smooth, professional, and stress-free. Jay was incredibly easy to communicate with, always responsive, honest, and fair with pricing. His crew was great -- friendly, respectful, organized, and they cleaned up everything. They even removed and hauled away an old cobblestone walkway entrance from our previous deck; taking that burden off of us. All this, and they finished ahead of schedule. We couldn't be happier with how beautiful everything came out. The deck completely transformed our backyard, and the added staircases and enclosure tied everything together perfectly. You can tell they take pride in their work. Highly recommend Long Island Decking to anyone looking for quality work and a contractor you can enjoy working with and truly trust. read more

Last week, I had a Trex deck installed by Jay's team at Long Island Decking, replacing my former antiquated wooden deck. From our first meeting to the end of the project, Jay was readily available to provided valued guidance. His skilled oversight of the various trades, including deck construction, paver installation, and related electrical work, resulted in a seamless and cooperative experience. The project was completed as promised, on schedule and on budget. The clean-up was thorough, and the final result has exceeded my expectations. The deck and new pavers are lovely! I am pleased to share this positive experience with others. I infrequently provide on-line feedback, but in this case, I am eager to recommend Long Island Decking. Often, after undertaking projects, I tend to look back and internally question what I could have done differently to improve the experience; in this case, I am currently looking forward to planning parties on my beautiful new deck! read more

My family needed the deck replaced and we met with Jay to get an estimate. Jay was able to answer all our questions about the deck replacement, he was very informative and extremely patient. It took us a few months for us to make a decision, he never pressured us and never made us feel like we were being a pain with all the questions we had. At that point it was no brainer to go with LI DECKING INC. Jose and his team were responsible for doing the work and we must say we were truly impressed on how punctual they were and how hard they worked on getting the deck done. These guys were true professionals and the deck was done in approximately 6 days and it turned out beautifully. My family would like to thank Jay, Jose, and the team for the beautiful deck that we will be able to enjoy. It was truly a pleasure working with you guys. Look no further, LI DECKING INC is the place to go. read more

I highly recommend Long Island Decking Inc! They redid our whole deck that was unsafe and just falling apart. We went with Trex decking and it's absolutely flawless. My backyard now feels like a relaxing resort and I can't wait to decorate it! Jay and his team were just fantastic to work with! Jay took the time to explain, and plan every part of the deck with me. He had lots of information on different types of Trex and never pressured me into any services. His team is was quick putting up the deck yet so efficient they worked miracles compared to what my deck used to look like. They cleaned up before they left for the day and cleaned the area after the project was completed! They were so kind to my daughter (1 1/2 yr old) and always waved hello when she would do a surprise inspection haha. I'm so happy to have my backyard back!! Thanks Jay and Team https://lidecking.com read more

I had my deck built by Long Island Decking in 2010. At the time, they worked with me to find a solution so that I could afford the six foot trex deck. I was very happy with the work and the level of professionalism at that time, however, that is not why I'm writing. I'm writing because I called Jay, the owner of LI Decking, about 2 months ago and asked him to come out and look at my deck. The settling over the years had caused it to shift a bit. It was not going anywhere but I needed to make sure. Jay took the job on and his workers completed it today. He called me to let me know the job was complete and I asked when he would stop by for payment. To my complete surprise, he said even though it has been 10 years, he was not charging me for the work! Now this is a business person you can respect. I will definitely tell my neighbors and friends to use LI Decking. read more

I can't say enough good things about Jay and the team at Long Island Decking. We had a very old deck in our backyard in much need of a facelift and while I reached out to 3 or 4 companies, Jay was the only one that made the time to come out and give me an estimate. His pricing was fair and you can tell he really cares about what he does. He stayed in communication with me leading up to the start of work and his crew couldn't have been more professional. Jose, the foreman, took the time to walk me through what they were going to do and they finished the job in record time. The entire crew was efficient, friendly and precise. It took them less than two days to give us a brand new deck. It looks fantastic and we couldn't be happier. They also left our yard spotless and it's like they were never even here. Stop looking around for other quotes - go with LI Decking! read more

I had a great experience with LI Decking and Jay building my deck and pergola project for the upcoming summer outdoor living season. The initial meeting was on time and Jay listened to my needs and gave a thorough presentation of the process, materials choices and ideas available to me ... a quick 3D rendering was also appreciated. Jay worked with me and my budget. After the April-May rains pushed things a bit, my appointment came up; the crew came early and worked efficiently and were done in a day and a half. They cleaned up the jobsite well and were polite and courteous. The end result was a beautiful and simple clean cut Trex deck in Tropical Island Mist with a couple of new stairs and a pergola to cap things off. It was exactly what I asked for and according to plan. I am happy with my new deck and can't wait for the bbq and furniture. read more

Long Island Decking installed my deck and stoop in July 2011. It was such a pleasure to deal with Jay and his crew and their professionalism. Suggestions made, and adjusted at the time of installation, were spot on. I cannot begin to tell you how much we have enjoyed the deck. It is such a perfect gathering place for family and friends - Not to mention all the times that we just sit by ourselves and relax. Although we thought it was expensive at the time of purchase, it is one of the best investments we have ever made. Maintenance is almost nonexistent. Other than hosing it down when the birds or trees make a mess, I clean it once a year with mild detergent and water. Jay and Long Island Decking are truly experts and I continue to be impressed with the product and the work they did. read more

If we could have give 6 stars we would! After collectively working in the construction industry for over 30 years on client projects ranging from the iconic NYC Woolworth Building, Atlantic City Casino/Hotels, high end northeast residential etc, we feel that client experience is paramount. We can say that LI Decking is by far one of the best contractors we've worked with over many years and many interactions. Jay and his team handled our project as if it was their own home and delivered a seamless experience with a final product that exceeded our expectations. More importantly the outcome was exactly what we envisioned during our design processes. Thank you Jay and Team! Your excellent work will provide many years of memories with friends and family.
